About this study

Official title: RolE of High Velocity Nasal Insufflation in imrpoVing wEaning Success in Respiratory Failure Patients (REVIVER)

The goal of this randomized active-controlled study is to investigate the role of high velocity nasal insufflation (HVNI) in the immediate post-extubation period and compare it with non-invasive positive pressure ventilation (NIPPV) as regards to weaning success rate. The study will recruit those who have been on invasive mechanical ventilation for at least 3 days and with a high risk of weaning failure.

Read the detailed description

This is a single center prospective randomized controlled open label trial of high velocity nasal insufflation (HVNI) in the immediate post-extubation period versus noninvasive positive pressure ventilation (NIPPV). After at least 72 hours from intubation, for respiratoy failure, those who are considered to be eligible for weaning from mechanical ventilation based on the weaning protocol but are at high risk for extubation failure will be randomized to either HVNI or NIPPV. Data on the respiratory and cardiovascular status will be continuously monitored and recorded thereafter.

The primary outcome measure will be failure of either arm within 72 hours of initiation, leading to reintubation (or crossover only from a failed HVNI allocation to NIV based on clinical judgement to avoid reintubation in selected cases). Secondary outcomes to be investigated include: 1) Failure of HVNI or NIPPV after 72 hours from initiation, 2) hospital mortality, 3) length of ICU stay, 4) length of hospital stay, 5) incidence of ventilator associated pneumonia, 6) patient tolerance and comfort, and 7) ICU readmission or mortality at 28-days post hospital discharge.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • High Velocity Nasal InsufflationDevice

    Also called HVNI

    A relatively new respiratory support modality which delivers very high velocity flows. This improves ventilatory efficiency via washing out carbon dioxide occupying the anatomical dead space of the upper airways.

  • Non-invasive positive pressure ventilationDevice

    Also called NIPPV

    An established non-invasive ventilation method via delivery of an expiratory positive airway pressure and inspiratory positive airway pressure.

Study groups in NCT05855213
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
High Velocity Nasal Insufflation (HVNI)ExperimentalHVNI (Precision Flow; Vapotherm®, Inc, Exeter, NH) will be delivered using a small-bore nasal cannula initiated at a flow rate set to 35 L/min, temperature of 35-37°C and FiO2 at 1.0. Adjustments in flow (up to 40 L/min) and temperature will be titrated to optimize patient's comfort. The target parameters after initiation will be as follows: 1. RR< 25 bpm 2. HR< 120 bpm 3. SpO2 92-94%
Receives: Device: High Velocity Nasal Insufflation
Non-invasive positive pressure ventilation (NIPPV)Active comparatorNIPPV will be initiated with an oronasal mask, with inspiratory and expiratory positive airway pressures (IPAP, EPAP) set at IPAP 10-20 cm H2O and EPAP 5-7 cm H2O to be titrated according to patient's response and comfort. FiO2 will be initiated at 1.0 for noninvasive positive-pressure ventilation. The target parameters after initiation will be as follows: 1. RR< 25 bpm 2. HR< 120 bpm 3. SpO2 92-94%
Receives: Device: Non-invasive positive pressure ventilation

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Failure of HVNI / NIPPV within 72 hours of initiation

    need to withdraw allocated respiratory support modality based on predefined arm failure criteria

    Measured: within 72 hours from start of either allocated modality

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. Failure of HVNI / NIPPV after 72 hours of initiation

    need to withdraw allocated respiratory support modality based on predefined arm failure criteria

    Measured: beyond 72 hours from start of either allocated modality

  2. Length of ICU stay

    number of days from ICU admission to discharge

    Measured: Through study completion, an average of 1 year

  3. Length of Hospital stay

    number of days from hospital admission to discharge

    Measured: Through study completion, an average of 1 year

  4. Hospital Mortality

    mortality rate in each allocated arm

    Measured: Through study completion, an average of 1 year

  5. Patient tolerance and comfort

    Rate of tolerance to allocated respiratoy support modality in each arm

    Measured: within 72 hours from start of either allocated modality

  6. Incidence of ventilator associated pneumonia (VAP)

    percentage of participants developing VAP

    Measured: beyond 48 hours from start of invasive mechanical ventilation

  7. ICU readmission or mortality post hospital discharge

    percentage of participants from each arm needing ICU readmission or dying within 4 weeks of hospital discharge

    Measured: 28 days after hospital discharge

Model description
This is a single center prospective randomized controlled open label trial of high velocity nasal insufflation (HVNI) in the immediate post-extubation period versus noninvasive positive pressure ventilation (NIPPV). Allocation arm failure , assessed after 72 hours of extubation, will be the primary outcome. Cross-over from HVNI to NIPPV may be allowed in case of HVNI failure and potential benefit as judged by the treating clinical team prior to reintubation.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing High Velocity Nasal Insufflation and Non-invasive positive pressure ventilation in people with Respiratory Failure and Weaning Failure, run by Alexandria University at 1 site in Egypt.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 10 inclusion and 5 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 11 May 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Egypt. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Each site lists its own contact: choose the nearest one under Trial locations. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Failure of HVNI / NIPPV within 72 hours of initiation (time frame: within 72 hours from start of either allocated modality). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 11 May 2023.
